I ask my Dr for saline and he said no! I am really upset. I tried the "Big 3" back in July 2017, right after my diagnosis. Took them for 3 1/2 months...too sick to take care of myself. I can't believe he would be unwilling to give me saline. He also said no to the vest. Other than coughing, usually productive, I have no symptoms. My oxygen stays 97%-98%. I am on no meds, except for medical cannabis. I did have a pseudomonis in Dec 2018, after having day surgery to have my gallbladder out. That was my last hospitalization. Can anyone send me links to research articles that I can show this Dr. He wants me to go back on Big 3...no way!

I was able to buy 0.09 from Amazon w/o Rx. and although I prefer 7% a research report on this board recently indicated 0.09% is as good as higher concentrations. Depends on how upfront you feel you need to be with your reluctant doc.

@suenfl, You can click on this link that I have here and print it out to show your dr. to try to convince him/her that you need the saline. Here is the saline chart. The chart is located near the end of the article. @flib, you may want to show this to your doctor. You can push the 'bookmark' tab underneath our texts to save it there. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4850692
